Description

Locality: Musonoi Mine, Kolwezi, Mutshatsha, Lualaba, DR Congo
Dimensions: 5.3 x 3.1 x 5.4 cm.

Wonderful (and very “hot”!) specimen of quite rich crystallized soddyite and kasolite with lesser uranophane on uraninite and digenite matrix from the famous Musonoi mine in the DR Congo. Colorful, “hot” (over 150,000 CPM on my Ludlum) and rare… this is what a great uranium mineral specimen is all about! 🙂
